What's with the stock price???

Quote




































51.15! Shortly after we came out lowering revenue forecasts in 2015 to 730 million. 6 months ago forecasts were at 580 million. That's 50 million less. During this timeframe the stock is up 40 percent. WTF! I feel like I am in a vast sea, in a sinking lifeboat, with 3 or 4 great white sharks swimming in a circle around me.

If the forecast was 580 million 6 months ago, and now 730, it would explain why the stock is at 51. However, I think you mean 780 million 6 months ago, which makes it hard to understand the price run up the last 6 months.

If we have a terrible first quarter, I mean a real Conmed stinker (like we all know we are capable of), will the stock price go to 60?

Only got to $54.60 WTF! Revs 2.5 % less than last year first quarter. Earnings fell from 49 to 43. Operating margins go down. Lowered revenue forecast for 2015 again, just did it a quarter ago. Stock goes up by 10 percent. Institutions buying it on heavy vol. What else do we have to do to get it to $60? What's going on here?

Many times CEO purchasing stock is a requirement of the job.. After all, no doubt he was given tons of options and his own jet?

My god, I hope you work for the competitor. Buying stock is never a condition of the job. Usually CEOs get stock FREE in the form of options at which they never shell out a single cent of the their own money to buy. Go to secform4.com to see the number of sales and purchased of company stock. Its a good gig when you can simply flip stock options for millions.

However, if and when CEO buys stock with his/her own money, this is a great sign. It means they believe the stock is going up!

Why would Stryker purchase? This would bring their stock down....what value would it bring them? Stryker makes purchases for companies with new technology or are growing fast. If ConMed is losing ground, Stryker would not buy, they would just continue to take their business.
